The vanes are long if memory serves me correct, but that was the only thing I didn't like really.

I don't recall them being available as bare shafts, but you never know. If not, shoot them for a while, and refletch them later. :wink:

Probably 80% of all the arrows out there, regardless of what they say on the label are made by Easton/Beman or Carbon Express.

The remaining brands are shared between Gold Tip, Black Eagle and a few other smaller companies.

So odds are a place like Cabela's is dealing with one of the "biggies" for their store branded stuff.

I bought a pack of 6 22" long last year for another bow and this was the straightness of them from best to worse in the center

.001,.0015,.0015,.003,.005,.095 I did not bother spine deviation testing to see the difference for the 6 of them as I decided to not use them for target shooting.If anyone wants to know the deviation for the batch let me know and I can do that and post it. I would guess(I`m not an expert)that they would be fine for shorter range hunting(maybe not the .095 one)?
